Why do my questions get deleted sometimes?

[Michelle]

Apologies, I have posted this on the worksheet functions group too...

I love the feedback I get from these groups, but every now and then, my
messages get deleted.

I'd like to know what I'm doing wrong.

Many of my messages ARE posted and answered, and I'm grateful for that, but
one or two get removed - regardless of how often I post them.

I don't swear or say anything bad about Excel - I love it.

So why don't they get posted are there some words or subjects that I should
avoid?

Will this one get deleted - it's a bit off subject? But I'd love to have an
answer

Thanks

Michelle

Couple questions for you to review the answers to. Are you posting to
the MSnews server directly? Are you filtering the messages?

 

[Michelle]

No, the nature of it is such that it is clearly one question that gets taken
down, no others. It shows for a minute or two then vamoos!

There are no other problems with the server.

No, no filters and no problems with any other questions or answers I post.

I'm not filtering the messages, and I'm using Windows Mail to post questions
and answers - I don't know if that means I'm posting to the server directly
or not!

Here is the direct line to the Microsoft newsgroup server, see if it
works better!
